Froch - Pascal less than a week to go !!!

[Fenster]

When this fight was made everyone (seemed like everyone) was saying Pascal is no good. That Froch would win easy.

Ive now seen Pascal fight. He is CLEARLY the BEST fighter Froch has been matched with so far. Pascal, like Froch, is a Roy Jones wannabe but he looks faster and sharper than Froch.

People saying he has no power.. he lands plenty of hard and sharp enough straight right hands to me.

I think the Canadians/Americans (think it was mainly Canadians) predicting an easy Froch win haven't SEEN big nose fight.

Im a brit......We are due for a loss and Froch will cement my prediction.....Pascal will win when theref stops the fight late on

Froch KO victory and set up a fight with Taylor who will have no excuse to avoid him.

[Bomp]

Pascal by UD, but his chin is shaky enough for Carl to have a shot

I went with Froch by points, think Pascal's speed will cause him problems early on but froch will do enough late on possibly scoring a couple of knock downs. Im starting to like Froch, good interview with him in boxing monthly if u haven't already read it Tam

Has Taylor tried to avoid Froch? Froch, who, even after he beats Pascal, won't have any name power in America? The only reason to fight the winner of the Froch/Pascal fight is for the belt- not cause they have any notoriotity; the only reason Taylor would "avoid" Froch would be for the lack of fan interest.

I personally think Taylor should fight the winner of Pascal/Froch, then Bute, and then go to War with Kessler, although I'm not sure of his odds him.

Would be a great fight though, and would generate some great buzz for the Supermiddleweight division.

In the meantime, I'd like Kessler to beat B-Hop.

I haven't seen much of Froch, but I've seen enough of Pascal to know that if Froch has half to potential that some people claim he should win this pretty easily.

This fight wont tell us anything we dont already know about either fighter, neither has faced any quality to guage their own abilities.

I dont like Froch as a fighter, hes too slow footed and easy to hit and telegraphs his shots with his angry witch face, he also poses and gets caught at the same time, showing his reflexs arent that great, he does have power but thats been against who?

Pascal has been hurt but I think hes been busier, done more rounds lately and will be sharper, he puts punches together and I can see a dull points win for Pascal, although like I said, I havents een either against a known quantity to have a proper idea on what could happen.

Oh right. Personally i don't think Froch is that great. In fact not great at all. He is good. Pascal looks good to me too.

I've not decided who wins this yet.

this is on youtube, surprised at how nimble froch can be on his feet when he chooses to be.

I think it will be a great fight, hopefully froch wins but pascal has been seemingly written off and i dont see how you can do that.

footwork is something that is really underrated by a lot of froch critics, they dont actually understand how quick he can get in and out of range. I think we are going to see that a lot in the fight on sat, Froch can be mobile like he can be sometimes. He knows how fast Pascal is and hes not underestimating him in the slightest. He will have a very good game plan and its going to be very explosive!

Ive seen alot of Froch already and just watched some more rounds of Pascal and they really do deserve each other

Pascal seems to have the more technical ability but hasnt fought anyone and backed out of a Miranda match, Froch is also an unknown and has waited till hes 31 to fight a live opponent

Whover wins will have done boxing a favour by ridding it of another imposter

Both are awfull and both would be underdogs against Kessler

[Tam Seddon]

well stop having a pop at both of them and enjoy the fight. Both boxers are good on the eye to watch and it will be entertaining, thats the most important part IMO ?

[CutMeMick]

I went with Froch by TKO.

That's not really the case. He's been heavily avoided and fighters gave frequently pulled put against him, leaving him no option but to fight a journeyman at short notice.

The only thing i am worried about is his recent lack of a challenge. Maybe he'll be a bit rusty. I'm counting on a Froch uppercut to do the damage but my heads saying he'll do it on points....mainly because he'll waste a few rounds getting warmed up.
